Disclaimer: Mesa no owns Harry Potter. Enjoy this story and for the first time I've taken time to make revisions so now your eyes can read!! lol!
Paige and Samantha soon became restless with Cho. It was over an hour and all she had gotten on to the parchment was Dear Harry.
"Cho would you please just write something?" Paige asked.
"I don't want to make a fool of myself." she replied.
"You won't just write and send. Then see what happens from there." Samantha said.
Cho knew they were right. She wouldn't be getting anywhere if she had just sat there on her balcony for the rest of the night. Cho began writing and heard sighs of relief from Sam and Paige. She couldn't help but laugh a little at them. It took only 10 minutes for her to come up with a letter that didn't make her sound like she was asking for so much. Cho couldn't do that yet this was only her second letter to Harry. Cho folded the letter up and sent it back with Harry's owl.
"Have a safe journey." she said stroking its beautiful snowy white wings.
It hooted affectionately and nipped her finger affectionately as well. Cho smiled slightly and Paige and Samantha had collapsed on the floor laughing. She turned to them arms folded.
"What's so funny?" she asked.
"The owl. It loves you Cho. Just as much as it loves Harry." Paige said laughing harder than ever.
Cho picked up a pillow and threw it at her. "Ha ha ha very funny Paige." Cho said sarcastically.
Samantha then stopped laughing. "You did put that I said hi to Ron right?" she asked her.
Cho walked to the entrance of the balcony. "Maybe...maybe not." she said.
Samantha picked up a pillow ready to hit her. She ran for it and for the first time in a long time Cho was actually having fun.
Ron hasn't seen Harry being so nervous in a while now. Every minute of the day Harry would just sit near the window waiting for Hedwig to come back with another letter from Cho. He knew that he really loved her you could automatically tell. Hermione felt the same. She and Ron watched him wait for Hedwig each and everyday. She gave him looks of concern and they'd talk about it when he went up to rest.
"I'm still really worried Ron. What if Cho is just leading him on? What if he gets his heart broken again?" she said.
"I dunno. But Cho wouldn't do that to Harry...at least I hope not." Ron replied.
Hermione nodded and looked out to the night sky. She had finally gotten herself to be able to use Sleekeazy's Hair Potion everyday. She couldn't stand having it bushy anymore. Everytime Ron saw her he'd see her in this brand new light. Just like he had seen her last year.
"Ron..." she said.
"Yes?" he replied.
"Ron..Krum invited me to stay for the remainder of the summer at his place." She said.
Ron felt anger rising in his veins the words he said next he still regreted for saying.
"Then why did you come here in the first place then? Why not just stay at your boyfriends house?" he said.
"He's not my boyfriend. I'm just staying there as a guest since he's going to be studying at Hogwarts for a while." She said heatedly.
"Then leave now if you want to! Since you care about him so much to leave here!" he exclaimed angrily.
Ron saw a pained look on her face. The anger was still raging in his veins but it soon went down. She walked off to get her stuff.
"'Mione, Hermione wait!" he yelled after her. Ron walked after her.
"If that's what you want Ron that's what I'll do. I'll leave now." She said.
Hermione poked her head through my bedroom door.
"Harry I'm leaving I'll see you when school starts." She said.
Harry got up utterly confused. "What..? Aren't you staying here Hermione?" he asked.
He walked after her too.
"Apparently not. Apparently Ron doesn't want me here so I'm staying with Viktor for the remainder of the summer." She replied.
She opened the door to Ginny's room who was still wide awake.
"Hermione, where are you going?" she asked.
"To stay at Viktor Krum's house for the rest of the summer." She replied.
"But why?" she asked.
"Apparently I'm not wanted here." She said.
Ron noticed she was fighting back tears. "Hermione please..." Ron began to say.
"No if you don't want me here I won't be here. I'll see you all in Platform 9 ¾." she said while holding the red and silvery transporter in her hand.
"Crookshanks come on." She said.
Crookshanks went over to her side. She held the transporter tightly.
"Viktor Krum's manor." She said.
A large orb then went around her and she had disappeared. She was gone. She had gone to Viktor Krum. Ron had lost his chance to become closer with Hermione.
The last weeks of the summer passed by quickly. Harry and Cho continued to send letters to each other. They learned so much about each other. And at the last week before they would meet up at Hogwarts Harry and Cho agreed that they'd meet up at Platform 9 ¾ to talk. Ron seemed deeply depressed though. Hermione would send letters occasionally back to the Burrow. Usually for either Harry or Ginny. Ron was in an extremely bad mood when it came to the day they were to go to Platform 9 ¾. Harry, Ginny, Fred, and George chose not to say a word to him throughout the journey. When they got to the station everybody got everything they needed in their trolleys.
"Have a wonderful year my dears." Mrs. Weasley said.
She hugged Fred, George, Ron, Ginny, and then Harry. Fred and George walked up to the platform. They leaned in casually and disappeared. Ginny run through the platform. Harry and Ron then did the same as Fred and George. Once they got on the train they met up with many old friends. Ron decided to sit with Fred and George to discuss the future of the Wealseys' Wizard Wheezes. Harry caught a glimpse of Hermione sitting with Ginny, and two unfamiliar girls who he has never seen. One of them had mid-back length golden blond hair, and hazel-green eyes. The other had medium length black hair and shimmering brown eyes.
(A/N: Obviously it's Samantha and Paige. lol)
He waved to them all and noticed the two unknown girls were giggling a bit.
He walked off to another compartment completely confused because of what the two girls did. He walked into one of the compartments. In the compartment he saw a girl with shoulder length black hair and a petite figure running her hands through the pages of a book.
"Do you mind if I sit here?" he asked the girl.
The girl looked up. It was Cho.
She smiled slightly and replied "Sure Harry. Take a seat."
Harry sat across from her smiling slightly as well.
"What're you reading?" he asked.
"Hopeful Flower by Alexa J. Thompson." She replied.
"What's it about? He asked.
"A girl who's trying to find a meaning in life and the only way she can find it is through love." She replied blushing slightly, still smiling.
"Must be a great book." He said.
"It is. It really is." She said.
She closed the book and put it back in her bag. There was an awkward silence for a few moments. The plump witch with the snacks on the trolley came by. Harry brought two cauldron cakes. One for him and one for Cho.
"Thank you" she said as he handed her the cauldron cake.
"No problem." He said.
They soon got into conversation about Quidditch. They were discussing about tactics for Quidditch.
"I could've beaten you easily that day." She said smiling slyly.
"You wish. My firebolt against your Comet Two Sixty. I beat you fair and square." He said.
They both laughed a little bit.
"Well the tables have turned Mr. Potter. I now have a Nimbus 2004. New model came in last month. I got it and it's almost as good as the FireBolt" she said grinning.
"Keyword Miss. Chang "almost" that's the keyword." He said laughing a little bit.
She hit him on the arm playfully.
"We'll just have to see how well this works then. So how about this? You and me meet up at the Quidditch Pitch somewhere next week. Next week you can pick the day and time." She said.
"Fine I'm up for a challenge. " he said grinning.
"Then it's date. Just you and me Mr. Potter" she said.
Suddenly they both looked away blushing slightly.
"Yea..just you and me." Harry said still smiling.
Cho turned to look at him. She smiled sweetly.
"Harry I have something to tell you..I-" she began to say.
Suddenly the two girls from before came into the compartment.
"Cho! There you are! We've been looking everywhere for you!" the blonde haired girl exclaimed.
"Well I've been here the whole time." She replied to the girl.
"Ooh I see..and with.who is this person?" the black haired girl said.
Cho looked at her giving her a you-know-who- this-is look. She sighed and turned to Harry.
"Harry these are my two best friends." She said.
She pointed to the blonde haired girl.
"That's Samantha Grint." She said.
"Pleasure to meet you." She said while holding out her hand.
Harry shook it and nodded.
She pointed to the black haired girl. "And this is Paige Adams." She said.
"Charmed I'm sure." She said shaking his hand as well.
Harry looked at Cho who looked at him. She smiled slightly and he did the same.
The train soon came to a stop. Paige and Samantha had run off somewhere which Cho knew they had done on purpose. She got up and out of the train. Harry followed her. He saw Hagrid and waved to him. Cho than turned to Harry once more.
"I guess I'll see you at the feast?" she asked.
Harry nodded. "Yea you will. See you later." He said smiling.
"See ya later than." She replied grinning.
Then Cho had done something that Harry didn't expect she would ever do. She gave him a hug. Once out of the hug Cho blushed a light shade of red.
"I'll see you around then bye!" she said.
Cho then ran off to find Paige and Samantha. Harry was left there grinning broadly.
"Hey Harry!" Someone called.
Harry turned and saw Ron beckoning him to the carriage. He ran over to him.
"So where were you I was looking for you everywhere." He said.
"I was in another compartment with Cho." He replied still smiling broadly.
"What happened?" he asked.
"Nothing I can tell you..yet." he said.
"Aww come on Harry! I'm your best friend!" he said.
"Maybe later. Not now." Harry said laughing a bit.
Through the whole way to the castle Ron kept on trying to persuade Harry to tell him. Harry still refused but as the carriages were moving his got across to another and he saw who was sitting in there. Cho. He saw her and she saw him. They both smiled and waved to each other. The whole way Harry thought about the hug he had gotten and the conversation he had gotten into with her. He was also thinking about his date set with her the following week. Harry's life seemed to mean something more now..he just hoped when he would continue to figure things out they would be with Cho..
Please R+R. It's greatly wanted. ^_^
